Incredible stay at Skårungen. We particularly loved the ability to book the private spa area - complete with sauna, hot tub, and cold plunge - the incredibly friendly staff, the amazing views in every direction, and the beautifully kept main area/lounge in the main building. Our waterfront cabin was cozy and a lovely place to stay.

The property was really nice and clean, however basic elements where missing, for example shampoo/body wash and shower rug/carpet. Otherwise, we had a great stay at this hotel and highly recommend it!

Cute place to stay!
This is glamping at its best. The cabin was comfortable and very clean with an amazing view! The shower and toilet only a few steps away. They are also immaculately maintained and warm. The main building has a nice bar, and seating area. The restaurant serves a preset dinner menu. I did feel the food didn't justify the price but I guess you are also paying for the ambiance and convenience. The staff working there are amazing, thank you for a memorable experience!

I can only review the A frame cabins, and I would say they are in desperate need of renovation. They’re cute from the outside but far from comfortable on the inside. Neon lights in bathroom and kitchen, no real cupboard in the kitchen, so that plates, cutlery etc. are just shoved below the sink. Also on the bed you could feel every spring — and I’m a very lightweight person who usually has zero problems with hotel mattresses.
Other than that, Skarungen is huge, nicely situated by the sea with beautiful views, and close to Svolvær.

$13 USD for a load of laundry.
Overall, it was a very comfortable stay. The only concern I had was that the black and gray water from camper vans were directed to be poured into a hole in the ground right in front of the men and women’s showers. And the area where the garbage was stored was right by the main reception area, and it smelled. More than anything, I paid $13 USD for a machine load of laundry that I did by myself.

We chose the glamping option and loved it. Views are absolutely spectacular. When you open the tent doors, you're immediately hit with a beautiful view of the water and surround mountains and fjords.
The heater in the tent warmed up the entire room very quickly. Bed was incredibly comfy. There was a communal kitchen and bathroom very close by. Super convenient.
If traveling during the summer, bring an eye mask as it's very bright in the tent with the sun being up 24/7.
